An interesting article in Nature - discussed by Marion Nestle
BBC News ask if a sugar tax needs to be introduced. I have discussed before that several countries are imposing taxes on unhealthy food; BBC News states that "Denmark and Hungary have a tax on saturated fat, while France has approved a tax on soft drinks. Now, researchers in the US are proposing similar policies for added sugar and sweeteners, amid concern about the amount of sugar in the diet".
Both articles a thought provoking read.
